Stücke mit Berühmtheiten

En Suite   Spielalter: 30 bis 80   Autorin: Sigrid Behrens   Verlag: Drei Masken

Sie ist die Ikone der sechziger Jahre: Audrey Hepburn, im kleinen Schwarzen, mit Zigarettenspitze und verführerischem Blick. So faszinierend das Bild, das die Nachwelt von Hepburn festzementiert hat, auch ist, so einseitig ist es: Sigrid Behrens sucht nach den Facetten dieser beeindruckenden Persönlichkeit, schaut hinter die Fassade und gewährt in ihrem Monolog einen Einblick in das Leben des Filmstars, der öffentliche Empfänge und Dinnerpartys mied und stets den Rückzug ins Private suchte.
